What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this dust for its powerful pest-elimination performance, with most reporting immediate results against ants, aphids, beetles, and other garden pests. Reviewers consistently highlight how simple it is to apply—just shake it directly onto plants, preferably in morning dew—with only a small amount needed for effective coverage. Many customers report using it reliably for years as their go-to gardening solution after other products failed. A few mention packaging concerns about underfilled containers, though these isolated complaints do not diminish the strong consensus that this delivers dependable, visible pest control results.

Would RecommendI have used this for years to keep bugs off my collards. I use the powder and liquid both are great.
Super Effective
Would RecommendI used this for an agressive nest of yellow jackets that had an underground nest in my yard. They were not happy about this being in the nest entrance, but within a day I saw less activity and after 2 days all activity ceased. Definitely an effective product! The holes in the top also allow good control while spreading it and you can dump a lot at a time if needed.

Easy to use!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use and open. Sprinkle wherever is needed. It does have a scent to it and powdery texture so make sure not to use in the wind. Would recommend!

Great Product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this Sevin Insect Killer Dust 1lb for free through Influenster in exchange for my honest review. This dust worked great to kill the insects that were destroying my rose bush. I just sprinkled this dust onto the rose bush and it has eliminated my insect problem. I would definitely recommend this product!

Great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used it on our flower bed, it seems to stick with the dirt. A little dusty, but we were using it outside, so it was okay. We wore gloves to make sure it wasn't harmful to skin.

Awesome.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] An exchange for my honest review I was sent this. Well because I have four dogs I found out that I wasn't able to use it after reading the package except for an areas that my dogs aren't so I ended up having my husband go and do my parents house because they're elderly and within days they were gone. The ants. Like this was pretty good. And I've heard some good stuff about seven to us but I never bought it so that was actually kind of cool to e...

Effective but Hard to Open
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife lovessss house plants, so I thought it would be fun to try this out. We have problems with bugs/mold growing in the soil, and I have to say this thing was pretty effective. My only concern is that the packing is kind of hard to use… when trying to open the top to sprinkle the dust onto the soil, I almost hurt myself prying the lid open. So maybe I got a defective package, but if not, I think the lid should be reworked.
